One final suggestion for this post: The >inclusion of time bombs (or some other sort of explosive) like the ones in >HERETIC would be a defenite + in QUAKE. I feel that it was a GREAT idea! Peripheral vision would suck no matter how it was implemented. Doom actually has peripheral vision by networking. You can set up the monitors to your left and right to show those views. I don't want Quake to be some shitty Origin system shock thing that is ultra complicated. Doom is simple and fun. Dark Forces implemented jumping and crouching and looking up and down beautifully. Easy to control those commands. The bombs idea is a good one.
